Reformer Pilates in Discovery Bay, Hong Kong for better mental and physical health

Boost Flexibility with Reformer Pilates at Embody in Discovery Bay.


Flexibility isn’t just about touching your toes, it’s about obtaining a greater range of pain-free mobility, which in turn makes you feel lighter and more energised. Reformer Pilates at Embody excels by combining dynamic stretches with resistance training. The machine’s pulley system allows multi-directional movements, lengthening muscles like hamstrings and hip flexors while improving joint mobility. 


A 2020 study found that 8 weeks of Reformer sessions increased hamstring flexibility by 4.6 cm in sedentary adults*. The Mermaid and Elephant exercises stretch the side of your body and calf muscles, which are particularly good for desk workers as this range of movements counteracts stiffness and enhances your mobility.
